RIP Walter Davis

[alphasigko]

Received the very sad news today that "The Greyhound", Walter Davis, has died. I became personal friend with Walter when he coached my son at our local health club in Denver. He was a just a great guy who had a heart of gold. We were looking forward to texting during the upcoming game in the Jimmie V Classic. Rest in peace my friend.

I loved watching him play at UNC. Sweet shot, always played in control, made everything look easy.

Did you get called for the charge?

He was outstanding in Office Christmas Party. Old school guy who liked his two drink lunch and got pinched by new wave management.

A true NBA pro for a long time. You were lucky to know him and probably hear some epic old school stories about some great players and teams.
